#'translated' - term used loosely#posted so I can look at it later and laugh at myself#mhw09 personal#头大另类 - my mortal enemy#I still don't know what the hell that's supposed to mean#'tiny monkey head-spinning/frustration-headache-inducing eccentric/strangeness' WHAT#went with 'baffling sort' because 'little headache-inducing freak of a monkey' is so needlessly hostile lol#anyway full disclosure I really want to add an “and” to connect the piercing eyes line with “wink without a care”#“with piercing eyes look upon all the world and then wink without a care”#because that's metal as hecks#not exactly what it says though so I resisted#also considered the more accurate “discerning eyes” but that sounds so mild-mannered#and the literal “fiery eyes and golden pupils” sounds cool but is a major mouthful#so#piercing it is#平是非 is also a little hard to get across#literally something like 'balances right and wrong'#'makes even right and wrong'#with a sort of...'suppress' connotation#a bit of 'I don't care who started it I'm going to finish it!' vibes#but ~literary~#I'm sure there's a better and more accurate way to deal with that but I dunno what it is#anyway this was good studying for the day I'm done now
